1.1 Function
In combination with an appropriate suspension solution, liners increase
wearer comfort and improve the suspension of the prosthesis. Together,
they reduce the forces that affect the residual limb.
These instructions for use apply to the following liners:

Skeo liners
Skeo liners improve shock absorption and wearer comfort.
Ottobock recommends a specific weight-bearing prosthetic socket with
distal end contact and the use of a shuttle lock for TT prostheses.
Ottobock recommends using a shuttle lock, KISS lanyard system or suitable
elevated vacuum socket for TF prostheses.
Caleo liners
Caleo liners are made of a thermoplastic gel. They effectively reduce shear
forces and contribute to skin care by releasing a medical grade mineral oil.
The plaster cast technique can be selected freely. The liner used determines
the appropriate suspension system.
Uneo liners
Uneo liners are made of a viscoelastic material. It adapts very well to the
form and structure of the residual limb and protects very well against impact
forces.
Ottobock recommends a total surface weight-bearing socket (the "Harmony"
principle) with a suitable vacuum system.
